Wonderful - My guide was extremely knowledgeable and tailored the experience to my taste. She was super sweet and made me feel comfortable and at home. Love the old world charm of the inn!

Good experience - Had a great time with my guide. Great communication and meet up was easy. Went to a nice wine bar/ store and sampled some wonderful local grapes. The charcuterie platter was very tasty

Brilliant tike. - Fantastic wine tasting experience, brilliant communication with the company, amazing wines and the host Giulia (think that's the correct spelling) was very knowledgeable and made the experience even more of a pleasure. Would highly recommend.

Excellent wine - We decided to do this tour on a Saturday night where the girl welcomed us and made us take a walk around the city making us discover the secret inns of Bologna and then guided us to a real wine shop where we tasted excellent local wines. Thank you.

We could have done this tour on our own - After meeting us, we walked around and looked at 4 different secrets of Bologna, then we were walked to a wine shop and provided 3 tastes of wine - which the wine shop employee provided and explained. Totally not worth it - we could have gone to a wine shop, ordered the wine, asked for ann explanation or looked up the information ourselves. The tour guide was nice but added nothing.

Rip-off, scam, waste of money, don't be fooled - This was the most horrendous rip-off for tourist I have ever experienced. 2 women (clearly students) escorted us to a wine bar, we were served wine & cheese and explained from the barman. Could have had better experience if we just went into a wine bar ourselves .

OH, BAD! - DISAPPOINTING! Unfortunately it was a disappointment! We were led by a guide for a few meters to a store where we were presented with three samples of wines harmonizing with colds and bread. There was not a tasting but a presentation of three wines. High cost because for more than €66 per Cover we could buy some bottles of wine in the same store. The guide does not understand wine and we discussed general matters.

TERRIBLE - After meeting us, we then were escorted to a wine shop and provided 3 wine samples which the wine shop employee explained. Absolutely not worth it The tour staff was 2 people one of whom had started only that day. The other had a bicycle which took her forever to lock up safely. In the shop the staff gave us some wine and a SMALL sample of local meat/cheese. This on three different wines. The tour guides sat chatting us and watching us eat .They were not offered anything only a very small taste of the first wine. Then one of the tour guides took out a sandwich and a yoghurt from her bag and ate it in front us. It was all very uncomfortable and unprofessional The whole experience was TOTAL RIP OFF costing €120 for two people and lasted an excruciating 90 mins. This tour offer should be stopped as it is terrible value for money and gives the company a bad name. I am happy for the company to contact me directly should they wish
